SOLVED: Missing 19-years Underwater | James Amabile Found in SUV [Ep 2]

[@KMcKee-qn6bo]

Man !!!! I remember Doug working with a towing company, then working beside Jared, then qualifying as a diver. Step-by-step he has been choosing a new direction for his life and following a new passion. IT’s been an amazing journey to observe. He is making a profound difference with his dedication to this direction in his life. And what an amazing example he is setting for his daughters... they are seeing their father make powerful choices for humanity, and that is the role-modeling that will direct them in their lives. Bravo, Doug !!! Such respect for you. . . . .

I used to live literally directly across the street from the Amabile family, and vividly remember when James came up missing and was obviously heart broken for the family. Fast forward and NEVER would I ever think in my wildest dreams that my literal real-life heroes AWP as well as Chaos Divers would not locate him, but bring him home. You are all forever in my prayers and there is no words to express my gratitude and sincere thank you for what you as well as like I said , Chaos Divers, Exploring with Nug, Depths of History, Adam Brown Adventures, and the many other that you have inspired to get out there and just look (including myself). You are all ALWAYS in my prayers and I again could never thank you enough for helping me giving me a purpose and getting me sober after a 20+ long opiate addiction. Love you guys and forced for all of your backs and you are ALL forever in my prayers. I sincerely appreciate you and humbly thank you again. The Amabile's are a great family and can finally have closure.

Unbelievable that the construction workers never went under water. No surveying done other than on paper. That's just crazy.

[@AnitaSouthall]

I've worked in a land survey office, they have this thing they call a no misclose. Basically it means you can't have any missing angles in a drawing, no possibility of any missing information on land surveys. I was also a boating person for much of my life. It makes me angry to think that the same standards of land surveys are not applied to new developments next to or in the water. So much unnecessary suffering. Hopefully these situations lead to real changes in regulations for all countries. Then his life will have made a real difference. RIP Jimmy. 🙏

I guess it went like "we found a car submerged, what we should do?" "boss: if we call the police, crime scene team will show up and will totally mess our schedule up, we will loose money, just put the pylon right cross through it, it is gonna be fine".. Someone got some explaning to do. 😖

[@movinon1242]

@@AnitaSouthall Do you have any idea what it would have cost even 15 years ago to try to survey the bottom of a river with 1-foot visibility? I think you folks see the technology now and think off-the-shelf consumer sonar was always like it is today. I am a fan of this channel, but people are starting to get very unreasonable about the lengths the rest of society should go to, and the incredible costs private individuals should have to incur, to account for something so freakishly rare. A more reasonable response is that a PRIVATE movement should begin, supported by public reward incentives. Motivate boaters who already have these imaging tools to survey coastal and riparian areas as they move through our waters. These would eventually identify these one-in-a-million situations long before they could happen going forward. If local governments offered $100-1,000 rewards for reporting the locations of strange underwater structures and items, this might never happen again. Going a step further, someone could follow in Google Earth's footsteps and develop a surveying system/ protocol to record GPS signals and underwater sonar data**. The end result would be huge, always "live" or current surveys of these areas. They could be compiled at minimal real additional cost after the protocol is developed. ** Get the effort started and Google would probably buy it off you ;-)

This was by far the hardest case I’ve been a part of. The amount of work it took for this recovery was overwhelming. This was a community effort between law-enforcement firefighters, crane company, and even the county workers who help cleaned up the mess afterwards. Also thanks to Wesley and his boys for all there hard work on the surface supporting Doug and I while we dove. The family’s strength and involvement was inspiring to see and witness.

I don't know how in the world they didn't notice something was unusual when they drilled the pylon in there. If they'd seen it was a car (which they certainly could have) it's just plain negligence to not report that to the police.

How do we know they didn’t report it, maybe they did. Many of these local LEA don’t have the budgets or man power or DGAF enough to pull every auto, hence why AWP is doing what they do. So, if the LE aren’t doing it, how is it a construction companies responsibility to do anything more than note it on their report and tell the sheriff? I guess what I’m trying to convey, the frustration is pointed at the wrong people… it's not the fault of a construction crew, the LEA that can't/won't do more with autos under the water & missing people cases blows my mind. Pulling them is expensive, sure, but sending out a dive team to at least identify the autos and check them off would be something.

Having type 1 diabetes and hearing Doug explain a low blood sugar and the state of being drunk and confused was just spot on. Sometimes I'll wake up late for work and have that adrenaline rush to get to work that I won't even check my sugars. Luckily, I have a Dexcom that gives me alarms on my blood sugars and tracks them, which has changed how diabetics live 19 years later. It's incredible how tech changes. But waking up with a low and not even noticing and then driving is the scariest feeling because of that state of confusion. It's scary how type 1 diabetes can change how some people live life.

[@canadianqueenbee845]

I always think about their spirits while watching these videos aswell. I actually flat lined in my early twenties & got to see, feel & survive death so I know for a fact that theres an after life & from what I experienced, the second you die your spirit leaves the body & you feel absolutely nothing but peace & lightness, every single emotion or feeling you felt in your life, in your body, remains with you body... but at the same time you also remain cognitive, like you can still see, hear & sense what's happening in the physical world. So I personally think in regards to the victims in these videos, I believe their spirits would probably sustain some level of connection to their physical bodies until they are officially laid to rest. But one thing I know for sure is that they are no longer suffering in any way, shape or form & that's the most important thing.🤗💯

As a type one diabetic of 50 years I know that a rush of panic and adrenaline will raise your blood sugar quicker than a can of red bull. He could well have been having a hypo and not realised. Diabetes is a very complex disease.

[@hr8839]

As one myself and a registered nurse that’s not a medical fact . If so he wouldn’t have been hypo according to your theory . Another medical fact is a large majority of diabetics don’t feel any symptoms of hyper or hypo. Fortunately I do and a safe reading I’m symptomatic as normal as 110 and about 200 if hyperglycemic . In my line of work I’d be dead if adrenaline caused blood sugar spikes . Physical activity lowers blood sugar . Most adrenaline rush one is physical active . Infections fevers can significantly raise blood sugar but not adrenaline. Adrenaline is correlated with cortisol from the adrenal glands not insulin .

[@hr8839]

What surprised me is hearing the numerous “rescues “ he needed from low blood sugar. I always carry oral glucose and glucagon injection . Sad the rush to get his kids he probably assumed he wouldn’t need anything for a short trip 😞

[@WardenWolf]

Not a diabetic, but I have some family members who are. Didn't these older pumps not actually check your sugar but instead just released a shot of insulin every now and then on a timer? He could have been low, but not critically so, but then the pump gave him a shot while he was driving.

[@hr8839]

@@WardenWolf yes they did read glucose even then . It’s hard to explain correctly here however the pumps deliver a tiny amount of insulin based on needs throughout the day . They won’t over deliver the amounts aren’t large amounts aka (bolus) Larger amounts needed we self administer either through the pump or a regular insulin pen . Before meals or when readings are high . It won’t self deliver if not needed . Not eating is a huge risk for dropping low very quickly .

[@jonhaslam3699]

@@hr8839 we’re all individual. Stress is a well known trigger for raising blood sugar levels. That’s a fact. It’s always risen mine and that’s what I said originally.

When people build things like docks they don't dive the water to see what the bottom looks like most likely to thought it was rock and by applying pressure it will give way. Great job Doug and company.

[@sassykaren7587]

This is so heartbreaking to know that when they built the dock, that they put the pylon right through the engine block. I used to live on the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland and would watch piers being built. I seem to remember that they would check out the area underwater to make sure that nothing would keep the pylon from being able to be pounded into the floor of the bay. It’s a really bittersweet moment, but at least Jimmy’s family now have the answers that they have been looking for. AWP thank you so very much for all the time and effort you put into helping families find their missing loved ones. I know that you wish you could solve every case, but you put your heart and soul into every single case that you are asked to look into. May God bless all of you, and keep you safe on your journeys. 🙏❤️✝️
